The Ritek/Ridata I never met on our local "markets" (The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany). The trick with the "No Brand" is quite simple. You just have to find out which "brand" or "no-brand" the profis in your area are using. Let's give a clear example: One of my best friends is a prof. video-editor. ASA the job has finished he will burn to CD or DVD. The disks he has to use to do this job must be of a quality thats allows his principals to produce factory-pressed CD/DVD's. No coasters allowed!!! Well these CD/DVD's I'm using too. In Amsterdam we have 3 stores selling these prof. "no-brands". Asking the shop-owners for real brand-names will produce a big smile and the question "Any complains concerning our disks??". I must say: "No!!". HTH, Jo Hisse l
